This topic has been discussed many times with many different options discussed.
i like the direction and the acceptance of this stand point so far with several parts to it.
however i believe finding the middle ground is the key.
I believe their should be no rental empires/buffer zones and no jump bridge/jump beacon networks to move 200 men across the whole of EVE in 10-20 minutes. i have done that, we even got to the fight in its early stages due to tidi and we raped the hostile fleet, it was a blast yet soooo over powered.
Quote: Jumprdrives limited jumprange to adjacent system only. (lightyear distance is irrelevant)
Limiting jump drives is a must, the range of this limitation is the major question.
I believe 1/2 to 2/3 reduction is optimal to really reduce the ability to switch region easily without the use of a gate.
the ability to use a gate would need to be added as suggested.
Or the other option or even combined fix, is to extend the time between jumps.
At this time, the time between being able to jump is completely based of capacitor, if you have a cyno/beacon chain ready.
A timer should be enacted which means that you can only use a drive drive/bridge once every 10 minutes, with the exception being blackops which would have a set % reduction on this timer, i suggest 75% to 90%.
Quote: All capitals can use stargates.
Agreed in order to enable them to switch regions if needed.
Quote: Jumpfreighters gain bubble immunity
Agreed, however with the exception that they can not jump from high sec directly.
A jump drive can only be activated from low sec or below if this change was to occur.
Quote: Regional Trade NPC is created to exchange racial building materials for other racial building materials.
i agree within reason and with a price increase, however i still do believe the logistic chains and industrialists should be able to cover this without much issue and is therefore not needed.
My questions to this option is: where would this trade happen from? NPC station? so adding NPC stations to sov only areas?
the rest i completely agree with.
Stations should need to be stronted, with a max of 36 hours if max fueled and must be refueled to enact the second timer, and shield regen or it just sit there waiting to be destroyed. |
